Engaged!

Chocolatl • Nov 13, 2007 6:58 pm
It's been mentioned in a few other places, but I thought I would make an "official" post to let y'all know that I am engaged to a long-time Dwellar.

Kitsune and I will be tying the knot in March of 2008, and we are both very excited! I've been reading the Cellar over his shoulder for a couple of years, so I finally decided to join last month. It's been neat getting to know y'all, and I'm looking forward to sticking around for a while.

Anyway, for photographic proof that Kits and I actually know each other, here we are out at Disney World in October of 2006. :lovers:

This is my first post here and I can't think of a better place to have it done!

Please accept congratulations from a new Cellar inhabitant.
glatt • Nov 13, 2007 9:37 pm
Hey, that's great news!

And since I don't think I ever welcomed you, Chocolatl, Welcome!

Edit: And since I see a new member here too, welcome, shina.

Congrats on joining the cellar shina!

Oh and, you guys too, happy marrying and such :p
Clodfobble • Nov 13, 2007 10:56 pm
What a cute couple you two are!

I'm a sucker for wire-rimmed glasses. I think everyone should wear them, whether they need them or not.
Undertoad • Nov 14, 2007 12:28 am
AWESOME

congrats all around!
Crimson Ghost • Nov 14, 2007 12:34 am
Congratulations to you both!
bluecuracao • Nov 14, 2007 12:39 am
Do you two wear the same prescription? That could be very confusing!


(Congrats again :))
lumberjim • Nov 14, 2007 12:41 am

HungLikeJesus • Nov 14, 2007 12:43 am
Already the pressure is on.

Not quite the same, but very close. I think my eyes are a little bit better than Kitsune's - but not by much.

Thanks! But I don't think there will be any MiniChocos or KitsuKids for a while yet. :headshake

It's nice to have a outrun-the-hurricane buddy. Congrats!

Sweet. The cellar is becoming irritatingly cute. Makes me want to vomit. (in a good way)

Congratulations, and you guys make a fabulous looking couple!
;)

Beest and I have mixed up our contacts more than once. weird.

Congrats!
Pie • Nov 15, 2007 11:06 pm
Kitsune's been one of my favorite posters for a while now -- his [SIZE=-1]fiancée[/SIZE] is bound to be equally cool! Congratulations and welcome!
Chocolatl • Mar 19, 2008 4:21 pm
Kitsune and I got married on Friday, March 14th -- hence our recent absences. Everything went well, and we are now back to the "real world" trying to get the hang of normal life again.

I'll post a link to the professional pictures once I get them in, if anyone is interested. :)
Clodfobble • Mar 19, 2008 4:25 pm
Aww, so purty! How was the honeymoon?
lookout123 • Mar 19, 2008 4:26 pm
congratulations. now get in the kitchen, his meal had better be warm when he gets home.


and for kitsune:

you know why the bride is smiling at her wedding?

She knows she has given her last BJ.

Why is the groom smiling?

Cuz he doesn't know what the bride does.
monster • Mar 19, 2008 4:33 pm
Congratulations :D
glatt • Mar 19, 2008 4:48 pm

We live in a bloody swamp. We need all the land we can get.

This is actually the main reason why I bumped the "Engaged!" thread rather than start a whole new "Married!" thread. For the last two months before the wedding, I kept thinking of myself as "enraged" to make myself laugh, though at times it was probably true.

It was great! We were out at Disney for a long weekend -- beautiful weather and lots of good food.

While I have heard many jokes about my boobs over the years, this is the first Python reference I've ever gotten. I'm actually kind of flattered. ;)

That's where "clone threads" come from. I've been resisting the urge to do that one. Actually, I wouldn't do that. Congratulations; y'all are so cute!
Trilby • Mar 21, 2008 9:21 am
congrats! you both so cute!
LabRat • Mar 21, 2008 10:00 am
Just saw this. Congrats to the new Mr. and Mrs.! Enjoy the time of just the two of you before the anklebiters arrive.

You're kidding, right? Of course we're interested.

All the very best wishes in the world to you - much luck and love in your future.
You should have given us a proper reminder though, I like to mark special occasions with cards regardless of where they are in the world!
richlevy • Mar 21, 2008 4:44 pm

Chocolatl • Jul 27, 2008 8:37 am
We got our professional pictures in last month, so I thought I'd post a few for the curious.

Here we are decked out in wedding finery...
Chocolatl • Jul 27, 2008 8:38 am
The first is us outside of the century-old restaurant where we held our reception, and the second is eating our delicious key-lime strawberry/mango passionfruit cake.
Chocolatl • Jul 27, 2008 8:56 am
Last two...
All smiles at the end of the night, and making silly faces as we have our "first dance" (once all the guests were gone) to Louis Jordan's "Is You Is or Is You Ain't My Baby."
Undertoad • Jul 27, 2008 8:58 am
Most excellent
Razzmatazz13 • Jul 27, 2008 10:06 am
you look beauuuuuuuuuuuuuutifullllll

both of you :D
Sundae • Jul 27, 2008 12:53 pm
Those are lovely. Traditional enough to feel "proper" but enough personality in there to be special.

I adore your dress Choc - I realise I didn't even say that last time. It suits you so perfectly. And the cake! Nom nom nom. Even without a sweet tooth I'd have been into that pretty fast. Looks and sounds gorgeous.

What a loely day it looks, hope it made both of you as happy as you look.
Clodfobble • Jul 27, 2008 4:01 pm
Very nice!
Elspode • Jul 27, 2008 4:39 pm
What a lovely couple you are. Terrific pics. Thanks for sharing.
Aliantha • Jul 27, 2008 5:33 pm
What a beautiful dress! Gorgeous. I love it! you both look great, and I love the look of the wedding cake too. Very classy.
Cicero • Jul 27, 2008 5:52 pm
You guys look great! Belated Congratulations!! I didn't know it happened already. I was expecting a married thread. ;)
Chocolatl • Jul 27, 2008 6:13 pm
Thanks everyone!

I picked the dress out on a whim in about half an hour flat. It was the first one I laid eyes on. I tried it on for fun, and it fit, so I bought it. Very happy accident. :)

The poor cake had a different kind of accident. I dropped the top tier when we were bringing it home, so we're going to have to order a fresh, small cake for our first aninversary instead of eating a frozen piece. (I don't understand how a cake with fruit fillings was supposed to last a whole year in the freezer, anyway, so good riddance!)

Here's a close up of the cake.
classicman • Jul 27, 2008 10:48 pm
wonderful, just wonderful - congrats.
jinx • Jul 27, 2008 10:56 pm
Oh wow, thanks for sharing... great job you two. Congrats.
Cicero • Jul 27, 2008 11:21 pm
That cake looks like it is about to melt right into my mouth. Am I right?!?

oh.
